Thank you both for your replies.

I have been seaching though the newsgroups and various websights and it would seem that "Romeo" is the only option to keep the name intact . Strange that an "obsolete " version of EZ-CD Creator would allow me to do what EZ-CD Creator 5 Platium will not !

Nero 5 with those settings does not allow the entire file name to remain intact ; it shortens the name to 64 characters . I guess the "255 characters" is a path-length restriction (eg. 2 directories deep , both with 64 character names , and 1 64 character filename).

Looking at the file name again - Universal_Plug___Play_Device_Host_{B63CDB08-24A7-4DB6-A0AE-F12A551BF41A}.sld
-it may already be damaged (renamed during compression or transfer ) , it likely should be-
Universal Plug & Play Device Host {B63CDB08-24A7-4DB6-A0AE-F12A551BF41A}.sld
(No underscores and the & symbol). Any thoughts ?

Again - Thanks
